This week on Love and Revolution Radio, we speak with Edward Hasbrouck, who, while traveling across Europe by bicycle, is also organizing a campaign challenging the future of the US military draft. Find out where and when the next national hearings by the commission polling the public about the military draft are going to be held. And find out how the US military is eyeing the possibility of expanding draft registration to women . . . and also thinking about a universal conscription into the military that would included everyone from medical personnel to tech support to your grandmother.
